Well beaten on chasing debut when last seen in November. Noticeable quick return to hurdles and appears to have every chance of going close.
Presenting gelding cost €100,000 as a three-year-old. Off the mark on hurdling debut when landing a Tramore maiden over 2m5f on heavy ground last month. Will look to progress in this contest.
Off the mark in a 2m maiden hurdle at Naas before a dismal effort at Leopardstown stepping into novice company on St Stephens day. Appears to have a mountain to climb.
Finally off the mark over hurdles at Naas over a similar trip last month. Neck second to ill-fated but exceptional Sir Erec last season ranked him a high class prospect. Sets a high mark.
Forecasts
Tiger Tap Tap (1/2), Insult (9/4), Ferocious (12/1), Rightplacerightime (25/1)
Struggling in a number of starts around 2m the step up in trip appeared to benefit the Willie Mullins-trained TIGER TAP TAP when getting off the mark for connections at Naas last month. The five-year-old can back that win up here at the expense of the Gigginstown House Stud pair Ferocious for the Gordon Elliott yard, winner over 2m5f at Tramore last month and the Henry De Bromhead-trained Insult.
